  • P - What pick up time should I choose?

    R -

    For transfers beginning at the airport, you should indicate the time at which your flight is due to arrive. The same goes for cruise ports and train stations: you should indicate the planned arrival time.
    For transfers from your hotel, you should indicate when you would like to be picked up. That doesn't mean the flight time, rather the time you would like to be collected. 
    For shared transfers, orders may be modified by the provider. Should this be the case, we will contact you to confirm the rearranged time.

    Flights, trains and boats are constantly monitored, so you don't have to worry about getting in touch with us. Should the delay be large, if it's impossible to reprogram the transfer as there are no vehicles available, we'll refund the full amount paid.

  • P - Why do I need a working mobile phone?

    R -

    A working mobile phone is needed so we can call you should there be any emergency, such as a breakdown, or simply if the driver can't find you.

  • P - Who is responsible for a missed flight?

    R -

    The transfer company is never responsible for a missed flight. The clients are those who must know what time the flight leaves, and book pick up far enough ahead of time.

Muy bien. El chófer se puso en contacto la noche anterior para avisar que venía 15 minutos antes. Llegó a las 6.00 en punto como avisó, lo cual fue fenomenal para llegar al aeropuerto SAW de Estambul con tiempo holgado. He quedado muy satisfecho con los traslados en Estambul aeropuerto-hotel-aeropuerto con la empresa "Vehiclize Travel Agency". La empresa se pone contigo en contacto por Whatsapp en todo momento. Repetiría. Translate this opinion into English.

Excellent. The driver contacted me the night before to let me know he would arrive 15 minutes early. He arrived at 6:00 AM sharp, as promised, which was perfect for getting to Istanbul SAW Airport with plenty of time. I was very satisfied with the airport-hotel-airport transfers in Istanbul with "Vehiclize Travel Agency". The company keeps you in touch via WhatsApp at all times. I would definitely use them again.

El traslado como tal fue decente, el taxi amplio aunque parecía un poco hortera con luces en el techo como estrellas y cometas. Había mucho tráfico y el viaje llevo más de 1,5 horas ( esto no es culpa del taxi). El lugar donde se coge un poco caótico por que había mucha gente Translate this opinion into English.

The ride itself was decent; the taxi was spacious, although it looked a bit tacky with lights on the roof like stars and comets. There was a lot of traffic, and the journey took over 1.5 hours (this wasn't the taxi's fault). The place where you got in was a bit chaotic because there were so many people. Opinion translated.

El traslado bien, pero la puntualidad regular. A las 18.15 estábamos en el lugar pactado y nuestro conductor no llegó hasta las 19.00. Teniendo en cuenta que la duración del trayecto son unos 45 minutos, ese retraso te marca bastante el tiempo del que dispones para disfrutar la tarde de llegada a la ciudad.

El vehículo no era el de la descripción, sin apenas maletero y un poco antiguo, teniendo que ir sentado "contra marcha" lo que produjo un mareo a uno del grupo. El conductor amable y buena conducción. Valoramos por encima al conductor pese al vehículo.

Tuve que esperar un rato en el aeropuerto hasta que me reuní con el chofer, pero es así allí, están todas las compañias juntas en un sector del aeropuerto con carteles identificando a cada una y se forman grupos de espera de pasajeros hasta que te acompañan a reunirte con el chofer. No me parece la mejor organización, pero es así con todas las empresas de traslado en el aeropuerto de estambul Translate this opinion into English.

I had to wait a while at the airport before meeting my driver, but that's how it is there. All the companies are grouped together in one section of the airport with signs identifying each one, and groups of passengers wait until they're escorted to their driver. I don't think it's the best organization, but that's how it is with all the transfer companies at Istanbul Airport. Opinion translated. Show original.
